Lehigh Valley Crime Stoppers is offering a reward for information leading to the arrest of the person responsible for bomb threats made to Emmaus High School over the past month.

The reward, which can be for up to $2,000, is for bomb threats that happened on Feb. 21, Feb. 26 and March 6, authorities said. In each of the threats, the school was closed as police searched the entire building, sometimes using police dogs.

In each incident, nothing was found. Earlier this month, an Emmaus High School freshman was charged in connection with a Dec. 20 bomb threat directed at the school. The girl was charged with one count of making terroristic threats.

Anyone with information on the bomb threats is asked to call Emmaus police's criminal investigation unit and ask for officer Vicki Schaffer at 610-967-3113. Anyone who wants to leave an anonymous tip at Lehigh Valley Crime Stoppers Tip Line can call 1-800-426-8477.
